Greeze's Musk + Jos. A. Magnus Straight Bourbon

Brown Bag Barn Night

Will and the Greeze go hang out with Chris and Joe Bourbon at the MADE SOUTH barn for a little brown bag action. This edition's rules: cloak your whiskey in a brown bag or something similar to mask its identity, spin a bottle to see who goes first, and no one reveals what they brought until after we have voted on our favorites at the end. It was a blast.
